18:35 "We're definitely going to clean all of this up" - he says about the neatest head unit install I've ever seen. I have to admire that perfectionism.
If you’re doing this with one that has the 4.3” display it’s a lot more difficult. You have to transfer the ribbon cables and ac controls compared to this one that still uses the factory bezel.
I dont even own a f150 but now I know when I buy one in a year or two I can get an older one for less and just upgrade my radio myself for apple carplay! THANK YOU!
Yep. Always blows my mind when people buy a newer car just for CarPlay. You can get a better head unit than factory AND get better features in an older vehicle
This is so damn cool seeing kits for maintaining the factory features and then adding new features we didn't have before. Very curious what features may be hiding in my Mustang. Saving this video for when I take that leap.
Fortunately this vehicle still fits a traditional double din headunits. So many new vehicles, headunit swaps are just not a thing as there is no easy replacement
Oh man! I love this video. I have a 2016 f150 and the factory sound sucks in my opinion. I had tried looking up vids like this but none were convincing. Im absolutley excited to do this on my truck. Cant wait for the next vid. Keep up the great work 👍 👏
I think Ford has the best factory units with the Sync 3 and 4 systems. I have an older Ford that came with the Sync 2 and upgraded it to the Sync 3 and has been great with Apple CarPlay.
@@chargertalk9023 upgraded to Alpine head unit with the Maestro Kit from Crutchfield. Did the install myself, was fairly straightforward with a few gotchas here and there. Note you lose factory chimes through radio, but no big deal. Already had a sub but now is direct from HU. Then decided I might as well add a 4ch amp, upgrade everything lol. The new head unit will make a big improvement. I originally wanted a Kenwood one but they didn’t have the one I wanted at the time, and if I recall Wireless Carplay options were my limiting factor. I have my 4ch amp turned all the way down. Have two JL 12TW3s in a ported underseat MTI Acoustics box.
This stuff is incredible man ! Love the installation as it is, only with the aftermarket Pioneer head. Can't wait to watch the following videos about speakers, amps and custom subwoofer upgrade 👍
Crutchfield is definitely one hell of a good company. Thanks for the video, always helpful. I wonder if the Pioneer sound is really much better than the 8" factory system (non-sony) on XLTs and up. It can play lossless music and I don't know that I would hear a difference (given that Focal speakers are installed ofc).
I personally think if you want to go up in a significant way from those systems, anything mid to top line Alpine or JL. Alpine being for SPL heavy systems or my personal favorite JL for the most natural premium sound
This is for the 8 inch screen. If you have the 4.3 inch screen, you'll need to replace the whole display unit. It's more timely and like another commentator mentioned, climate controls need to be hooked up. You'll need the FTR1 kit, not this kit.
Wow, yes this video is and was very detailed so detailed I felt I could do it myself but I'll leave it to the pros. Have a 2019 F250 super duty work truck and this will hopefully be in it if I can find the proper place for the installation. All the Aditional features are a bonus and definitely a must. Thanks for sharing your video and knowledge.
Love the install. I have an 18 F150 XLT sport with Hertz speakers and a JL 1000 HD amp with a JL 13.5 TSW. I want to change the deck out and add another amp for the rest of the truck. Little at a time. Can’t wait to see the rest of your install
Exceptional video. It may seem petty, but as much as I’d like to add an aftermarket head unit, i refuse to put one in because they all seem to feel like it’s required to slap their brand/logo front and center. I prefer a clean OEM look.
Question: Did the maestro retain the steering wheel sensor for the backup camera? Does the line bend when you turn the wheel or is the backup screen static?
I just did the Sync3 update and swapped the USB port to get CarPlay. For audio, I'm going direct to my AudioControl amps via the BT adapter, plus I have an Apple Airport express running mini Toslink to a Cambridge Audio Magic DAC for wireless lossless via Airplay ; ) There's a module that allows you to get video on the 8" OEM F150 screen. I'll be using that for my SpeedIR thermal camera.
I have a 2018 F150 with the B&O system. I would love to have wireless android auto, which is not available with the current Sync system. My only concern is the connectivity to the current, in place, amplifier/subwoofer combo. If I could have the aftermarket head unit and keep the 'good' stuff I currently have, I would 100% do it.
Thank you Mark! For making this video, I have a 2013 F-150 lariat. I want to upgrade my radio to a pioneer 8600nex, for the car play and the rca outputs, I love my car audio. Will the I-datalink retain my factory leather heated and cooled seats as well??. Thank you for your time sir.!
Hey Mark, great stuff, I have a challenge for you that would make for great content. I would like to see you Design a subwoofer box that will sit behind the rear seat of the F150. under the seat one, you did was great, but designing one that is hidden and can produce bass? I've seen it done but would love to see what you come up with. Also, design it to mount the Amp too.
Hey, Mark. I upgraded to a pioneer 4500nex in my 2015 f150 two years ago. Both pioneer heads failed. Bought through crutchfield and the first was replaced under warranty. The second was just out of warranty. I found that the idatalink had terrible connectivity issues and steering wheel controls would occasionally stop working. Another big issue is the climate control backlighting would turn back on about 40 seconds after I closed my truck and run my battery down. Finally after speaking to crutchfield probably 3 dozen times, we concluded that this series f150 doesn’t play nice with after market radios. I just wondering if you have heard the same thing? The 3.5” stock screen is terrible, but I don’t have any problems anymore. I have appreciated your channel and learned a lot over the years.
Great video and I'll definitely be using it for reference later this week when I install my Pioneer DMH-WC5700NEX in my '16 F150 with the 4" screen. Where did you mount the Bluetooth microphone?
Excellent video. Love the Kenwood stereo in my 18 F150. So much better than the stock Sync. The iDatalink was the most important feature for me since it allows me to use the dash volume knob with the Kenwood as well as the steering wheel controls. Awesome. Now I just need to get a Kenwood with capacitive HD screen. Also that large metal bracket behind the screen was fun as hell to remove. /s
Amazing video. Crutchfield is limiting the depth on the F-150 (and receiver choice), I assume, based on that bracket you said could be removed. Will that bracket add another inch or two of clearance? Thanks!
I just purchased a 2020 Ford F-150 Lariat with the B&O audio. Crutchfield says I shouldn't replace the audio system. Just wondering why? I'd like to have one of the Pioneer systems like you installed on this truck.
This is the video I have been hoping for. I have a 2013 F150 with the Sony system. I have a set of Jl audio c3 5x7 components and a set of c2 5x7 coax. I was going to keep the factory amp to run the new speakers, but when I hooked up one c2 in the rear it didn’t really sound better than the Sony speaker. If the factory amp not good enough to run the JL’s? Is it better to change the head unit first and keep the factory amp amp and speakers or keep the factory head unit and run new amps, and speakers first?
I live in Australia and I have A 2015 Falcon Ute with Ford's Sync2 ICC, the Bluetooth no longer works and its AU$1100 for a new unit or AU$600 for a repair. I might have to try some of these options but the Sync2 unit controls climate as well.
It might be simply the bluetooth module that has gone faulty. In most ford vehicles that I have seen, the bluetooth module is actually separate from the radio/display. Another option is the Sync3 headunit. Probably just as pricey as a Sync2 unit, but with a number of the options that were talked about in this video.
I ordered the 9 inch pioner n best buy n they gonna do the install n just realized you said about if the truck had the speaker on top n i guess mine does has a gril didn’t think it was a actual speaker thought it was for appearance or something anyway best buy has a fit where you put the info of my vehicle n it didn’t ask if it had the the speaker with the gril on top so does it matter or what?😊
Would this still retain the trail and 360 cameras on the Raptor ? Also is the camera quality better with the screen because it's terrible on the factory unit lol Thanks
great video Mark! the one question i have one of the features i like about my stock radio is when i receive a call and the A/C fan is on high it turns it down does the Maestro do that ?
Idatalink also makes a harness that connects straight to the factory SiriusXM antenna and gps antenna. I’m a little confused where is the camera module. Did they get rid of it for 2018 and up? I have a dmx907s I am contemplating on installing but I don’t want to go down in screen size from the 8 inch or lose my SiriusXM travel link. I’m sorry I still think aftermarket head units have a long way to go as far as features.
I purchased all the other accessories from Crutchfield but not the radio. Got a better deal at Amazon. How can I get the same diagram page you have for connecting the wires together from all the pieces?
I have a video idea and something i am curious about (audioheads forgive me) if you are using a external amp and dac, does it matter what your head unit is, say for instance you get a boss android/iphone ready head unit (I can hear the shooting) is their preouts just as good as the big boys?
Hey mark you probably won’t have time to answer but maybe someone sees and offered advice. I currently run 8 channel setup but really want to add in a 9th currently I use a Rockford dsr1 not sure what all dsps can be used with stock sony unit using the maestro
Ok so I did this install to my 2015 xlt non Sony system. I'm using a pioneer dmh 2600nex with maestro rr. Works until it doesn't. Factory Volume knob and steering wheels stop working randomly and only way I can reset is to go into pioneer settings and select maestro reset. Then it works but I tried refreshing the rr and bought another rr programed it again , still has issue at times. Can't be the Audio control module as you remove that to install this right?
If only the headunit manufacturers would support the idatalink port in their non-US units... Although i have an US-spec Kenwood radio for my EU Mustang and the MFT1 kit, i don't get DAB+ in my Mustang this way. Only EU spec radios have DAB+, but no idatalink port. :(
For a '13 F150, with factory Sony system do I have to pull the center console out to access the factory amp when using a Maestro Rr? Or all the connections done in the dash?
Does anyone know if switching from the factory head unit on the 13th gen F150s affects connectivity with the Sync Connect App on my smartphone? (Location, remote start, locks, fuel, etc)
I'm installing the same Pioneer 4660 Head unit in my 2015 F150, but I'm having an issue with the back up camera only showing a black screen. I've double check that I have the same brown AV cable connected to the Yellow back up camera AV in your video. Any ideas why this may be? Thanks
Hey got a question about crossovers, I know there’s a dedicated video but I heard this today, if your box is tuned for… let’s say 36 hz, you’d want to have the crossover set close to that frequency?
those two frequencies are not very much related. The crossover frequency depends on how much of the higher frequencies you want your subwoofer to reproduce. That will depend on how low can your mid bass speakers play. So, let's say my mid bass speakers are capable of playing frequencies down to about 80hz, I'll then set my sub crossover frequency at or under 80 hz, regardless of my box's tuning. Your box tuning mostly influences how low the notes your sub will be able to reproduce, and therefore shouldn't be accounted for when setting a crossover frequency. The crossover's main goal is to prevent the subwoofer to play higher frequencies that it wasn't meant to play.
This may be the most comprehensive head unit installation video I've ever seen. Thank you for taking the time to make this. Great job!
18:35 "We're definitely going to clean all of this up" - he says about the neatest head unit install I've ever seen. I have to admire that perfectionism.
Finally, an installation video for this truck!!!! Thank you so much bro. I've been searching for awhile.
I remember when I put a new Alpine system in my 1995 Cougar. The good old days. This is so friggin' complicated. But awesome video.
been waiting for you to do a video like this. Others on youtube have, but you present in very understanding and clean way.

I think Ford has the best factory units with the Sync 3 and 4 systems. I have an older Ford that came with the Sync 2 and upgraded it to the Sync 3 and has been great with Apple CarPlay.
garbage compared to newer aftermarket
How much was that upgrade?
I'm here because my APIM module in my 2018 failed and needs replacement. No interest to pile money back into the stock config.

Nice video well done earned my sub.thank you.have a great day sir.
can u do a review on the insane audio for the f150
How were you able to keep the stock volume knob? I can’t kind any kits that keep it.

Hello this is an awesome video.
Would this set up operate the factory heated seats that are only accessable through the radio?
I ordered the 9 inch pioner n best buy n they gonna do the install n just realized you said about if the truck had the speaker on top n i guess mine does has a gril didn’t think it was a actual speaker thought it was for appearance or something anyway best buy has a fit where you put the info of my vehicle n it didn’t ask if it had the the speaker with the gril on top so does it matter or what?😊
Would this still retain the trail and 360 cameras on the Raptor ? Also is the camera quality better with the screen because it's terrible on the factory unit lol
Thanks
Would I lose functionality for heated steering wheel and massaging seats?
So I guess this does not apply to B&O systems in 2018 Rapter, crutchfield says nothing works when I select B&O says says does not fit your vehicle
great video Mark! the one question i have one of the features i like about my stock radio is when i receive a call and the A/C fan is on high it turns it down does the Maestro do that ?

rocking that gaming laptop tho
Good for video editing on the go 👍
How about doing a installation in the audi a4 quattro 2003
Can you upgrade the head unit on 2020 f350/f450 super duty as well? What about the 360 surround cameras?
I purchased all the other accessories from Crutchfield but not the radio. Got a better deal at Amazon. How can I get the same diagram page you have for connecting the wires together from all the pieces?
I've got 360 cameras and really like them. Is it possible to retain them or is it rear only?
What about if you have the trailer backup system? Does it still show the proper video for that? That is my main concern.
Crunchgield please add Toyota voxy to your list
I have a video idea and something i am curious about (audioheads forgive me) if you are using a external amp and dac, does it matter what your head unit is, say for instance you get a boss android/iphone ready head unit (I can hear the shooting) is their preouts just as good as the big boys?
I have a 2019 King Ranch SuperCrew…. Will this work??
Hey mark you probably won’t have time to answer but maybe someone sees and offered advice. I currently run 8 channel setup but really want to add in a 9th currently I use a Rockford dsr1 not sure what all dsps can be used with stock sony unit using the maestro
What do they use the center channel for anyway and is there any reason to retain it if you are upgrading the speakers and possibly adding a dsp
Question- what if I don't have a computer to program the module?
What do you recommend for a 2011 ford edge? Factory navigation and backup camera.
Will the kit bypass a factory amp too? If I've already upgraded the speakers and have an aftermarket amp?
No, it wont, but with an aftermarket headunit you can always connect your aftermarket amp directly to the new headunit.
@@Cathul ok. Thanks
would this work for a 16 expedition? im not seeing any aftermarket headunits for my truck. thanks
Does idata link also help with keeping heated/cooled seats? Only control for seats is on stock display.
Ok so I did this install to my 2015 xlt non Sony system. I'm using a pioneer dmh 2600nex with maestro rr. Works until it doesn't. Factory Volume knob and steering wheels stop working randomly and only way I can reset is to go into pioneer settings and select maestro reset. Then it works but I tried refreshing the rr and bought another rr programed it again , still has issue at times. Can't be the Audio control module as you remove that to install this right?
Does it retain the use of the factory USB ports?
If only the headunit manufacturers would support the idatalink port in their non-US units...
Although i have an US-spec Kenwood radio for my EU Mustang and the MFT1 kit, i don't get DAB+ in my Mustang this way. Only EU spec radios have DAB+, but no idatalink port. :(
Checked the page and I couldn’t find anything for my 2012 Ford F-150. Could you tell me where I can see the options for my truck?
so i guess it doesnt use your factory microphone for calls since you said you'll have to run the aftermarket microphone?
Correct. The aftermarket mic is way better
For a '13 F150, with factory Sony system do I have to pull the center console out to access the factory amp when using a Maestro Rr? Or all the connections done in the dash?

What about heated steering wheel control?

So can you get a aftermarket head unit and still run sync 3 programs?
So I need to get a top brand stereo to use this harness or will any stereo work ?
If your truck has Sirius xm, do you retain it with this unit?
How were you able to keep the factory volume knob. I can’t find any kits like that
Where you bought the antenna adapter
